Even
Apple's iPhone 5 couldn't slow Samsung Electronics down. The
Korean conglomerate's flagship Galaxy S III had
four of its five best-selling weeks in the U.S. after the
iPhone 5 was unveiled, Samsung told CNET.

The spike after the iPhone 5 launch
suggests that consumers hung around to see what Apple had to show off, weren't
impressed, and went with a Galaxy S III instead.

"I was shocked by the
numbers," Kevin Packingham, chief product officer of Samsung's U.S. mobile
arm, said in an interview. "I thought: 'What the heck is going on
here?'"

It's
just the latest bit of good news for a company that has enjoyed a remarkable
run to the top of the smartphone business, allowing it to surpass Apple
and dominate with a flagship brand that has virtually the same
appeal as the iPhone.

Samsung
is poised to continue its run into the holidays as it drums up attention for
its latest product, the extra-large Galaxy Note 2. In
typical Samsung fashion, the company on Wednesday threw a splashy party for
media, d-list celebrities, and select Samsung fans in Manhattan's old Post
Office headquarters, capping off the night with a performance by Kanye West.
